There is a new feature in omniORB 2.6.x. This is the support of the
bootstrapping agent which is compatiable with JavaIDL.

For instance, if you have omniNames (must be omniORB 2.6.x ) running on
machine wobble and port 1234, you can start eg3_impl as follows:

$ eg3_impl -ORBInitialHost wobble -ORBInitialPort 1234

This feature is documented in the user guide and various read me files.

And yes, you can use the similar command line argument to start a JavaIDL
client/server.

Regards,
